PositiveImpact The Integrated Public Transport Enhancement program will likely lead to a significant increase in public transport usage, reducing car dependency. This could lower maintenance demands on the A1 motorway due to fewer vehicles, leading to longer intervals between required repairs and upgrades. Moreover, the promotion of electric buses would not only enhance air quality but also lower wear and tear on road infrastructure, positively influencing long-term maintenance costs.

NegativeImpact However, there is a risk that if public transport improvements do not effectively attract users away from personal vehicles, the anticipated reductions in congestion may not materialize, leading to continued high maintenance demands on the A1 motorway amidst rising traffic. If the funding is not properly allocated or managed, it could divert necessary resources from essential maintenance of existing infrastructure, potentially increasing future liabilities.
